The capture and catalytic performance in integrated CO 2 and utilization (ICCU) potentially contributes to reduce CO 2 emissions with low cost and high efficiency. Breaking through the limitations of conventional dual-functional materials (DFMs). Herein, Fe-CaO/NF self-assembled with nickel foam (NF) as template is designed and prepared via hydrothermal method. CaO is anchored on the Ni-foam skeleton, and Fe-Ni bimetallic sites within the CaO matrix establishes dual-active centers synergizing CO 2 chemisorption and activation. The stability and activity stability of CO 2 capture and in-situ conversion were improved, CO 2 capture capacity is 12.8 mmol/g, CO yield is 9.33 mmol/g, ∼80 % CO 2 conversion is achieved, and 100 % CO selectivity is obtained. It shows good cycle stability and high activity in 12 cycles. The synergistic effect of Fe and Ni on CO 2 adsorption and conversion was confirm by DRIFTS. The interaction between CaO and Fe is weakened by Ni, while the interaction with Fe promotes the conversion of CO 2 . In comparison, the stability and activity of the without O 2 -containing cycle are higher than those of the O 2 -containing. O 2 has a negative effect, leading to competitive adsorption between CO 2 and H 2 O in the CO 2 capture process. The H 2 O molecular layer is formed on the surface of the rod-like structure, and the reduction of the active phase is interference, resulting the regeneration of CaO was decline.

The alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucial for a sustainable hydrogen economy but remains hindered by the slow dissociation of water and the difficult adsorption/desorption of hydrogen intermediates (*H). To address these dual challenges, we introduce a lattice expansion strategy via the incorporation of larger-radius Co 2+ into a NiCoP electrocatalyst. XRD, HRTEM, and XPS analyses reveal a significant lattice expansion of up to 3.2%, which effectively modulates the electronic structure, promoting electron transfer from Co and Ni to P. Electro-response tests further verify that the NiCoP catalyst with optimal lattice expansion control exhibits enhanced water dissociation and an appropriate *H binding capability. These synergistic effects endow the platform with an ultra-low overpotential of 23 mV at −10 mA cm −2 in 1 M KOH. When integrated into an alkaline water electrolyzer, the NiCoP platform requires only a cell voltage of 2.2 V at −500 mA cm −2 and demonstrates superior stability for over 600 h.

The redox asymmetry conversion mechanism of adsorbed phosphate during thermal reconstruction remains elusive, limiting the exploitation of spent adsorbents' untapped potential. Here, we report a counterintuitive phenomenon: upon annealing phosphate-saturated CoFe layered double hydroxide (CoFe-LDH) in a reducing atmosphere, the phosphate does not decompose completely but selectively co-generates conductive cobalt phosphide (CoP) and active P O species, forming a self-supported CoP/FeCo 2 O 4 heterostructured electrode. Specifically, the metallic CoP facilitates rapid electron transport, while the P O species synergistically enhance redox kinetics and interfacial compatibility. The pivotal finding is that this in-situ phosphorus speciation challenges the homogeneity assumption inherent to conventional doping paradigms. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (P 2p bimodal coexistence) and transmission electron microscopy reveal that the “partial reduction–partial retention” behavior of phosphate arises from synergistic regulation by interlayer confinement effects and metal-phosphate coordination structures within the LDH precursor. Benefiting from this unique configuration, the electrode achieves an exceptional areal capacitance of 3.71 F/cm 2 at 1 mA/cm 2 in 3 M KOH, with 69.74% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles. Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the built-in electric field at the CoP/FeCo 2 O 4 interface facilitates charge redistribution, reducing the interfacial charge-transfer resistance to 0.48 Ω·cm 2 . This study establishes “phosphorus speciation” as a new principle for concurrently optimizing electronic conductivity and redox activity, offering a paradigm for the function-oriented repurposing of phosphate-laden remediation materials into high-performance energy storage electrodes.

Achieving nondestructive, high-precision quantitative elemental analysis at the nanoscale has long been a challenge in materials characterization. The proposed Grayscale Bayesian Elemental Quantification Analysis (GBEQA) method effectively circumvents issues such as insufficient detection depth, destructiveness, and matrix effects encountered by conventional techniques by integrating grayscale information from synchrotron radiation nano-CT with a Bayesian inversion framework. By constructing a grayscale probability model and generating probability mass functions through convolution with standard materials, GBEQA achieves unsupervised element quantification without requiring prior knowledge for the first time. The validation on FeNi alloys and Ni0.9Co0.05Mn0.05(OH)2 (NCM90 precursor) demonstrates high agreement with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) while successfully characterizing nanoscale element distribution heterogeneities inaccessible to conventional techniques. This study establishes a novel paradigm for elemental analysis that combines nondestructive, 3D resolution, and universality, holding significant implications for advancing research on complex systems such as alloys and energy materials.

High-efficiency and low-cost oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts are essential for advancing water electrolysis technologies. Transition metal thiophosphates (TMPSs) have garnered considerable interest in the OER field due to their ability to modulate the electronic states of active atoms through surface defect engineering. In this study, monolayer theoretical calculations reveal that the interaction between adjacent single-double sulfur vacancies (S-DSVs) significantly alters the electronic structure of phosphorus atoms, thereby tuning the binding strength with reaction intermediates and effectively lowering the energy barrier of the rate-determining step. As a result, S-DSVs outperform isolated single sulfur vacancies (SSVs) and double sulfur vacancies (DSVs). Single-layer FeNiP 2 S 6-x (SL-FeNiP 2 S 6-x ) catalysts with uniformly distributed S-DSVs were successfully synthesized via a mild and selective etching process using B(OH) 3 . Electrochemical measurements demonstrate that SL-FeNiP 2 S 6-x with an optimized S-DSV concentration delivers excellent OER performance, achieving a low overpotential of 171 mV at 10 mA cm -2 and a Tafel slope of 38 mV dec ‑1 in 1 M KOH—surpassing most reported iron/nickel-based OER catalysts. This work introduces a novel strategy for enhancing electrocatalytic activity by precisely controlling the position and distribution of sulfur vacancies through controllable etching.

Graphical High OER/ORR performances : boosted oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) as well as optimized oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and high-activity zinc-air batteries (ZAB), from a nitrogen-doped carbon nanomaterial (NCM) inserted Ni−Co layered double hydroxide (NiCo-LDH) electrocatalyst on nickel foam are achieved. The super thin NCM prepared by calcination of self-assembled perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride/dicyandiamide improves the conductivity, electroactive surface area of NiCo-LDH nanoplates. Herein, a high performance bifunctional catalyst was prepared by inserting N-doped nanomaterials into Ni−Co layered dihydroxides (NiCo-LDH) nanoplates for high performance zinc-air battery. By using self-assembly of perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride and dicyandiamide in the hydrothermal condition, a nitrogen-containing super thin carbonaceous nanosheet is achieved after calcination. Then NCM inserted NiCo-LDH nanoplates attached to nickel foam (NiCo-LDH/NCM@NF) are synthesized by in-situ production of NiCo-LDH species on NCM wrapped NF. The specific NCM improves the conductivity, electroactive surface area and the ORR/OER bifunctional activity of NiCo-LDH nanoplates. In addition, benefited from the formed rich oxygen vacancies, NiCo-LDH/NCM@NF delivers the low OER overpotential (352 mV at 50 mA cm −2 ) and boosted ORR performance with a half-wave potential of 0.765 V vs RHE. As the air cathode, the fabricated ZAB devices show a satisfactory capacity of 685 mAh g −1 and the energy density of 158 mW cm −2 .

Oxygen evolution reaction is a key process in hydrogen production from water splitting. The development of non-noble metal electrode materials with high efficiency and low cost has become the key factor for large-scale hydrogen production. Binary NiCo-layered double hydroxide (LDH) has been used as a non-noble metal electrocatalyst for OER, but its overpotential is still large. The microstructure of the catalyst is tuned by doping Mo ions into the NiCo-LDH/NF nanowires to form ternary NiCoMo-LDH/NF nanosheet catalysts for the purpose of enhancing the active sites and reducing the initial overpotential. Only 1.5 V (vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE), ≈270 mV overpotential) is required to achieve a catalytic current density of 10 mA cm−2and a small Tafel slope of 81.46 mV dec−1in 1 M KOH solution, which manifests the best performance of NiCo-based catalysts reported up to now. Electrochemical analysis and micro-morphology show that the high catalytic activity of NiCoMo-LDH/NF is attributable to the change of the microstructure. The interconnected nanosheet arrays have the obvious advantages of electrolyte diffusion and ion migration. Thus, the active sites of catalysts are significantly increased, which facilitates the adsorption and desorption of intermediates. We conclude that NiCoMo-LDH/NF is a promising electrode material for its low cost and excellent electrocatalytic properties.Keywords:layered double hydroxide;electrocatalysis;oxygen evolution reaction;nanosheets

Breast cancer cell-derived exosomes have high potential as biomarkers for continuous biopsies and longitudinal monitoring in breast cancer. However, it is extremely difficult to separate exosomes with high recovery and high purity from complex media, such as urine, plasma, saliva and cell culture supernatants. Here, we designed a flexible and simple microfluidic chip for exosome separation. The capture zone of the chip is a three-dimensional structure of interlaced cylinders doped with nickel powder. Exosomes were separated from cell culture supernatant by the immunomagnetic separation method in continuous flow mode and were detected by fluorescence imaging with high sensitivity. The chip achieved a high exosome recovery rate (> 74%) and purity (> 67%) at an injection rate of 3.6 mL/h. Thus, this chip was demonstrated to be a cutting-edge platform for the separation and detection of exosomes. It could also be applied to separate and detect other types of exosomes, microbubbles and cells.

Direct extraction of Ni(II) from Fe(III), Al(III), Ca(II), Mg(II), and Mn(II) is a bottleneck issue in the hydrometallurgy processes of laterite-nickel ore, spent batteries, and other secondary sources. One of the biggest challenges in achieving direct extraction of Ni(II) is the lack of stable and efficient extractants. Hence, a novel bipyridine extractant MSL211 was designed and synthesized in this paper. With its strong steric resistance and electrostatic interaction, MSL211 can form a stable eight-membered chelating ring with Ni(II), thereby having a high bonding ability toward Ni(II). Therefore, based on the high bonding ability of MSL211 toward Ni(II) and the low extraction capacity of DNNSA for Fe(III), an efficient synergistic extraction system of DNNSA-MSL211 was proposed. The synergistic extraction system of DNNSA-MSL211 realizes direct extraction of Ni(II) from Fe(III), Al(III), Ca(II), Mg(II), and Mn(II) without neutralization, precipitation, and solid/liquid separation processes, which are inevitable but problematic processes in the current hydrometallurgy processes for removing Fe(III), Al(III), and Mn(II). The effects of the molar ratios of DNNSA:MSL211, shaking time, temperature, O/A ratios, and equilibrium pH on the extraction behavior of Ni(II) were investigated. Under optimum conditions, the extraction efficiency of Ni(II) was as high as 97.62%, and the separation coefficient of Ni(II) over all impurities was greater than 400. To elucidate the mechanism of the high selectivity of DNNSA-MSL211 toward Ni(II), DFT calculations were carried out to calculate the binding energy (ΔE) and Gibbs free energy (ΔG(ext)) of the extraction process. Furthermore, this paper investigated the entire ″extraction-stripping″ process, demonstrating that the synergistic extraction system of DNNSA-MSL211 avoids neutralization, precipitation, and solid/liquid separation processes, minimizes hazardous waste generation, and shortens process flow while meeting the objectives of sustainable and clean production.

Xylitol is a value-added health product from the hemicellulose component in biomass. In this work, highly efficient Cu–Ni/SiO2 catalysts are developed for the production of xylitol by means of xylose hydrogenation. The bimetallic catalysts exhibit higher activity compared to the corresponding monometallic nickel or copper catalyst and the currently used industrial Raney nickel catalyst. The bimetallic catalyst with a higher ratio of nickel to copper shows a better performance. The 5Cu15Ni/SiO2 catalyst exhibits a xylose conversion of 96% accompanied by higher than 99% selectivity to xylitol under the moderate conditions of 100 °C and 3MPa H2. The bimetallic catalysts show improved performances when they are activated at a low temperature. The apparent activation energies of xylose hydrogenation over the 5Cu15Ni/SiO2 and 20Ni/SiO2 catalysts are 16.6 and 25.2 kJ/mol, respectively. The formation of the Cu–Ni alloy leads to a lower activation energy and thus superior performance for xylose hydrogenation to xylitol.

The HER requires a highly efficient, cost-effective, and stable catalyst to adapt to the large-scale hydrogen industry. Nickel has been confirmed to be useful to drive the water splitting reaction, but the intrinsic performance remains unsatisfactory. In this work, nickel (EG–Ni) with compressive strain was prepared through a one-step electrochemical deposition strategy. It shows an outstanding enhancement for the HER, and it achieves a current density of 10 mA cm−2 at a low overpotential of 85.9 mV. A long-term durability test proves that the EG–Ni can tolerate a large current density of 100 mA cm−2, and the overpotential remains steady without dramatically increasing. Such a low overpotential and superior stability are attributed to the optimized adsorption energy on the catalyst surface, as evidenced by the downshifted position of the d-band center.

2,3,5,4′-Tetrahydroxy stilbene-2-Ο- β -D-glucoside (TSG) and emodin (EMD) are two main components of Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. (PMT). Its root is widely used as herbal medicine and supplement. However, PMT-induced liver injury has drawn increasing attention. The purpose of this study was to investigate the interaction of TSG with EMD in the aspects of enzymology , pharmacokinetics , and hepatotoxicity. Co-administration with TSG increased internal exposure of EMD, EMD-derived hepatic protein adduction, and EMD-induced liver injury in mice. Mouse and human liver microsomal incubation study demonstrated that co-incubation with TSG decreased the formation of hydroxylation metabolites of EMD. Human recombinant cytochrome P450 enzyme incubation study showed that TSG induced time-, concentration-, NADPH-dependent and irreversible inhibition of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 . An epoxide metabolite derived from TSG was responsible for the observed enzyme inactivations. The findings allow us to better understand the mechanisms by which herbal processing detoxifies raw PMT.
